If it was me I would call whoever back and have them explain in great detail what the reason for seeing your GP is all about..
My GP knows all about my Psych meds but would not fiddle with them at all.
Good luck ! |
They said it was "easier" because then I can make an appt with the counsellor who is in the same building and do it all in one day (it's about an hour and a half away from where I live and it is true I am seeing the counsellor regardless). But the psychiatrist at the community health centre is located literally 15 mins from my house! I told them this too. My mum thinks they're following some wacked out procedure.
I was thinking about calling but from the email it looks like they're pretty set on this and I don't want to argue at this point. Especially because the lady who was handling this is really nice and she's just passing on what "they" have said and decided. From what I gathered they also think it's acceptable for a GP to deal with psych meds.
Also it's not even my GP I'm seeing. It's the GP at the university
